Baltimore Wooden Boat Festival 2014
County Cork
It is more a festival than a regatta. There are talks, demonstrations, an River Row for the curraghs and other working dinghies, and two proper harbour races. As well as the big working boats, the sailors will include some old wooden yachts and wooden dinghies.
Two associated events add to the interest. There’s a seafood
festival on Sunday, bringing the best of the West Cork farmers market
stalls to Baltimore. There’s also a build your own boat competition. The
competitors are given materials on Saturday morning. The winner is
decided by whoever is fastest to around a short course in the harbour on
Sunday.
